Additional information
The reported work is on an innovative single function robotic surgical tool and reports the robust operating nature of the device in use. This evidence is essential for approving the device for commercial exploitation, and to assist the end users; the global company Cochlear Ltd (Australia - j.dalton@cochlear.com) and a surgical team in Birmingham, listed as authors, to find wider acceptance of the system and technique in practice. There is a world-wide patent (US 8,463,421) on the system and the IP is currently under license with the manufacturer Sapere Systems Ltd (Fiona.marston@dial.pipex.com).
